I don't know what you have wrong with it. I have 2 programs (neither are old, they just don't like Win7) that I use a lot. Both use multilingual features, which while Win7 is great with, they were not ...

I have tried to use Windows 7 64bit, but have had too many programs that would not work properly. For the record, most won't work in Vista 64bit either. Some are as simple as the RAW codecs for camera ...
